2016 Social Media Platform Cheat Sheets

The need to keep your social media presence accurate and viewable is increasing every year. Optimizing your profile pictures and sharing the best quality layouts goes a long way to representing you and your brand.

Social media platforms are constantly evolving. It’s difficult to keep up with all the changes to profile pictures, timeline rules, and Tweet specs. A few weeks back, we received a request for updated cheat sheets for the major platforms. We haven’t compiled this information since 2013 and a lot has changed since then.

So, here you are … the 2016 updated Social Media Platform Cheat Sheets for image size and general rules. Today we are focusing on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. Each downloadable cheat sheet (just right click and hit “save image as”) gives you an overview of the best image sizes for each social network.

Once a year, it’s great to review all your sites and make sure you’re photos are optimized. Keep in mind, as you engage in social media, sometimes you don’t actually see your profile pages all that often, especially with things like Twitter and Google+. If you just joined a new social media platform like TikTok and are looking to go viral, look into the services provided by Virall.com. For only a few bucks you can buy TikTok likes and rise to fame.

In two weeks, we’ll add LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, and for the first time … Instagram. So, make sure to come back for your complete 2016 Social Media Platform Specs Cheat Sheets.
